The Android Market now has 38,000 applications available for download, Jeff Huber, Google’s senior VP of engineering, said during this afternoon’s Q1 earnings call. It’s not often we get even semi-official numbers out of Mountain View, but there you go.
Also, we put quote marks around “apps” because as we all know, there are a goodly number of ringtones, skins, wallpapers and any number of other things in the Market that we wouldn’t normally consider apps. So there you go.
